I think it worth be mentioned in documentation, because many people can be sure that everything is fine with their setup, but still vulnerable by POODLE for example

This has to be mentioned in the documentation. The documentation is not addressing this at all, which is missleading at the least. How should the user know?
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
The
ssl_protocols
directive works fine in both http and server contexts, and you can test it as follows:Note the above example uses servers on distinct ports - this is an important point. The
ssl_protocols
doesn't allow to change available protocols in virtual servers listening on the same address:port, as protocol have to be selected before nginx will be able to choose a virtual server to use.Some additional details can be found in the mailing list thread here:
